Power Up: Roll Out Solar Arrays Boost Space Station Power Supply
From the International Space Station’s unique position 250 miles above Earth, the Sun is a vital source of energy. Solar power supports the station’s life support systems, daily activities, and hundreds of research investigations that improve life on Earth and prepare humans for deep space exploration. Over the past five years, NASA augmented the station’s

Starship Flight 15 Date In Sight - With Catches Planned | Starship Update
SpaceX is proposing up to 456 Starship launches a year from Starbase, while Flight 15 is targeting no earlier than November 8 with plans to catch both Starship and Super Heavy. Meanwhile, Ship 40 has returned home after 75 days at sea following Flight 13. In this week’s Starship Update, we cover Ship 42’s engine reinstallation and cryogenic testing, Booster 23’s move to Massey’s, and the next vehicles taking shape inside Starfactory. We also break down the proposed two-phase expansion of Starbase operations, check progress at Florida’s LC-39A, follow Raptor testing at McGregor, and take a closer look at Ship 40’s journey back to Starbase. The proposed launch increases remain subject to environmental review and FAA approval. Flight 15’s target date and recovery plans are also subject to change. Will Flight 15 achieve the first catch of both vehicles? And what should SpaceX do with Ship 40 now that it’s home? Share your thoughts in the comments.

How To Start A Nuclear Chain Reaction
The Neutron was discovered in the 1930's when scientists found unknown radiation being emitted by a Polonium 210 reacting with Berylium. This would lead to the discovery of nuclear fission, the invention of the nuclear reactor, and the nuclear bomb. And while the energy from the bomb would come from fission, it would need some neutrons generated in the plutonium pit at exactly the right time to kick off the reaction near peak criticality, not too soon, and not too late. And that's what we're talking about today.

Could Engine Work Delay Starship Flight 15? | Starship Update
SpaceX has removed Ship 42’s Raptor engines ahead of Starship Flight 15—but what does that mean for the next launch and a possible ship catch? Meanwhile, Ship 40 has arrived at the Port of Brownsville after a recovery journey spanning more than 12,000 nautical miles. In this week’s Starship Update, we cover Flight 15 preparations, Raptor testing at McGregor, and work on the launch towers and pads at Starbase. We also head to Florida, where SpaceX is preparing LC-39A for Starship hardware and a future launch from the Space Coast. In this episode: • Ship 42’s engine removal and the questions surrounding Flight 15 • Booster 23, Booster 24, and the next ships taking shape • Pad 2 chopstick maintenance and Pad 1 flame trench construction • Long-duration Raptor firings and relight testing at McGregor • LC-39A deluge and quick-disconnect testing • Potential hardware pairings for Starship’s first Florida launch • Ship 40’s return and what SpaceX could learn from the recovered vehicle Will Flight 15 attempt to catch the booster, the ship, both, or neither?
